Supposedly The Cure is playing a 'secret show' at The Blank Club in SJ 10/06/12. Super small venue, holds around 300 people maybe.
Here is the link: http://events.kroq.cbslocal.com/sanj...01-042212209-1
That link seems legit, I won't believe it until I see it though, went ahead and bought 2 tix anyway. I only live a couple miles from the venue
It can't possibly be. It's not "the vipers" playing, but "Petunia and the Vipers" according to the Blank Club's own site. seems to be a rockabilly band.
The Blank Club's site also says "+guests"
I'm not risking it. I ended up buying 2 tickets. If the Cure isn't there, then I only lose $20. If they do play, then it'll be the best $20 I spent.
under performers it says: The Vipers, Exene Cervenka, The Cure. The Blank Club website states: Petunia and the Vipers featuring Exene Cervenka + Guests. Are The Cure aka "+ Guests" who knows? I won't believe it until I see it
you guys.
I did some more digging. It appears that the singer Exene Cervenka has MS. Could this simply be a benefit show for "The Cure for MS"?
I don't know why that kroq event page shows 4 pictures of The Cure along with the other artists performing that night.
Also, Exene Cervenka's webpage has her playing in Minneapolis, MN on 10/6. At this point I would say its a better bet that The Cured (tribute band) will be the ones playing that night
well done kroq.
My friend's uncle owns The Blank Club. I'll ask.
The Blank Club has mysteriously removed the "+ guests" from the bottom of the bill. The plot thickens. I'm still calling tomfoolery
I got an email back saying, "They are NOT playing."
2 Tix for Petunia and the Vipers. Blank Club SJ 10/6. $20 PM me
14 posts well used.
20 bones flushed down the toilet
the cost of being gullible.
Someone sure pulled a fast one on me
btw... you know that whenever you inquire with a venue about a secret show, they always deny it, right?
Hahahaha. Yeah. I was with my friend last night and The Cure is most definitively not playing at the Blank Club. We had a good laugh.
Bloc Party's show at the Fox on 12/6 is back up. They're currently doing a fan presale through their website.
They announced that A-Trak is playing the Fort Mason NYE Streets of San Francisco thing.
Hope everyone got their Jamie XX/John Talabot ticket..
hey folks- presales are sold out at this point. We are looking to release a very, very limited number of tickets again in the next 2 weeks. Just check in here for updates. And there will be a minimal amount (if any) of first come, first serve tickets at the door night of show. Thanks for the support.

Anyone going to the Beach House show tomorrow? And/or have an extra tic for sale?
